DOSES ACCORDING TO SIZE OF TREE

The regulation of the doses for the diff
ferent sized trees so as TO produce uniform
treatments is calculated on the basis of the
results of the experiments which deter
mined the amount of each Constituent for
l2-foot tree. The following table indi-
Gates the amounts for trees of different di-
mansions of top, based upon the rates OF
cubical contents.
The amount Of material for each dose
differs from that previously recommended
bulletin ~ by decrease of one-fourth
in the amount of soda and slight change
in the acid; the cyanide remains the same.
Varying amounts of soda were used, show
ing quite clearly that decrease of one
fourth was possible, but farther than this
an appreciable le'sening in the preserva-
tive effect was noticeable.

About Dye Stuns.

Professor Watson Smith, of Owens Col
iege, Manchester, England, says of dyes:
Formerly they used to rely principally
upon vegetable dyes Of animal origin. The
vegetable or wood dyes, however, had TO
large extent disappeared, and there were
not many of these with which they needed
to trouble their minds, because they had
been replaced, and would be still further
replaced by other materials. There were
really only two of these vegetable DIVES re-
mainlns-indigo and logwood-all other
wood dyes having been already more or
less replaced by coal-tar dyes. Lac dive
had been entirely displaced, and the con-
sumption of cochineal had been reduced to
probably less than 200 tons per year. A
great deal has been said against coal-tar
dyes. They were told that these dyes were
fugitive and poisonous. and that there
could not be produced from them as fine
shade as was obtained from the vegetable
dyes. Now, all this was fallacious. If all
that had been said against coal-tar
colors was true, one would naturally
be led to suppose that the consump-
ton of them would decrease. But
what was the fact? Why in the last year
the consumption of these coal-tar colors
had increased more than SO per cent
Trade last year was had all over the world
they hoped that this year it might be
better-yet this increase of consumption
had taken place, quite exclusively, he
should say, in compound colors. No
fabrics were now dyed in any of the pure
colors and the increase of consumption
had taken place in judiciously blending
these colors with themselves or with veg
etable dyes. A card of "spring shades,
1887 being $50 different colors obtained
from coal tar, without indigo or any veg
etable dyes, was shown. These colors COM
prise many bright and most delicate
shades

desirable to test the residue occasionally

This is done by adding little more acid

takes place upon stirring, care being taken
not to mistake the eifervesence from the
material accidentally gathered on the sides
of the cylinder during the operation, for
that of material which should have been
acted upon in the bottom Of the cylinder.

Pour into the cyanide receiver and allow
it to run slowly and regularly upon the

The Philosophy of the Kerosene La

!.
The question Is often asked: "Whence
comes the unpleasant smell from the use of
the Kerosene lamp?" 4 contemporary an
swers the question as follows With the
best oil that is made you can produce a gas
III your house that will make the atmos-
phere as disagreeable as it is unhealthy.
In all lamps, where proper and complete
combustion is maintained, there is no per-
ceptlhle odor from any quality of oil sold
IN the market. But the trouble is, when
people want TO leave house or a room for
time and keep light burning, they turn
down the wick. This is done for economy
IN most instances, but there is not only no
economy IN 1t, as | shall show you, but
there Is also danger to health and life.
Now, when you light a lamp, there is at
iirst time when the fame will not burn
high without smoking, but after the
lamp and chimney are properly heated,
and full supply of oil is established
through the capiilaries of the wick. a
strong flame can be maintained. Now if
with this supply established, we turn
down the wick, owing to its decrease of
burning surface, the supply of oil contin-
ues IN the same ratio, what is not con-

gas, which is carried out with the ordinary
products of combustion into the air of the
room, vitiating it and making it very I'M
healthy to breathe. Now here, in my
opinion, is the basis of lamp explosions,
and II the proper proportion of atmos-
pherlc air gets into 4 chimney, or is blown
into it, an explosion is sure to result. In
nay opinion, most of the explosions of
lamps, so-called, occur by explosions in the
chimney. 4 lamp should never be turned
down. 1t can be easily extinguished by
blowing across the top of the chimney,
and very little practice will show that
this Is the easiest and the best way. After
blowing out, the wick should be turned
down inside the tube to prevent the oil
flowing over. A close attention to the
methods have indicated, will, am sure,
prevent most, if not all, accidents from ex-
plosion of kerosene oil, and save many
lives, as well as many thousands of dollars
worth Of property every year.

How LONG VACCINATION PROTECTS.
By vote of the German Parliament a
commission was created in 1888 to consider
and report upon the objections to vaccina-
ton and characterization. This commits
sion was large one, and included three
prominent opponents of vaccination. The
following are some Of the conclusions given
in its report as stated in the Annalcs
d Hygiene Pablique for February, 1887.
The length of time for which vaccination
protects against smallpox varies greatly in
different persons, but in the mean it is
about ten years. REORGANIZATION is neces-
sary ten years after primary operation.
Two well-marked vesicles are necessary to
insure a successful protective vaccination.
